Poll: Challenge event 15 registration (32 member(s) have cast votes)

Want to play?

Entries are closed. Draw will be announced as soon as advanced robots are assigned.

Since we played MPs last time, let's do another IMP best-hand challenge event. (And for those die-hard fans of MP-non-best-hand, I promise that will be the next one )

This will all be the same format as Event 13.

Register via the poll above (but see below if you haven't registered before). Will make the deadline for registration two weeks today (14 December 11:59pm EST); will be a little lenient on deadlines for the first round given Christmas, but if you're taking an extended break perhaps sit this one out.

For anyone who has not participated before:

This is a forum event based on friend challenges. You will be playing challenges against other members in a round robin / knockout format, with an expectation of around 3 16-board challenges a week. No prizes, just fun. To prove you are capable of creating/accepting challenges, if you have never played in a challenge event before, send me an 8-board IMP best-hand challenge. I will accept promptly - you must complete the challenge before expiry to prove you are capable of participating. (If you've competed in any previous event, voting in the poll suffices).

Feel free to send me a friend challenge of any format as often as you like. I'll always accept :)

I see 31 members cast votes in the poll. Is that how many entries there are?

We've got 33 - shuba and tim_ucin said they'd play but didn't vote - so will be 3 pools of 11. (Was actually going to use GIB to even up the pools now that we have challenge-a-robot, but it's not needed now).

Just waiting on barmar to assign the robots.

Feel free to send me a friend challenge of any format as often as you like. I'll always accept :)
